Eduardo Sanchez struggles in Class AA rehab stint

Cardinals reliever Eduardo Sanchez, who has been out for a month with a shoulder strain, isn't faring particularly well against Class AA hitters during his rehab assignment.

Sanchez, who has made two appearances with the Springfield Cardinals, has a 7.71 ERA with two hits, a walk and two earned runs allowed in 2 1/3 innings pitched.

According to the Springfield News-Leader:

"Sanchez emerged erratic from the bullpen in the seventh inning Saturday night, blowing a one-run advantage and ruining Kevin Thomas' fine start, as the Springfield Cardinals lost 5-3 to the the Frisco RoughRiders.
